Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass. However, some users point out limitations in storage capacity and the lack of a disc drive as significant drawbacks. The console's resolution capabilities also receive mixed feedback.

    I have a beastly pc build and I previously bought the Xbox Series X when it first dropped. I sold the Series X becuase I didn’t use it but I missed playing Madden and MLB The Show! Picked this guy up and it’s been nothing but amazing!

    It is good but missing the disc is more important than I thought it would be, I use game consoles for dvd/blueray more than I realized

    This system was very hard to get and I finally got lucky and was able to put in cart and purchase with an arrival day of Dec 31st and it came Dec 24th. Merry Christmas to my grandson who thought it would come by January 26 for his Birthday. He is happy and so are we. He's such a good kid and that was one of his rewards.

    I bought this as a replacement for my wife’s Xbox that gave up the ghost. It is discless, and is meant for 1440p, but it still plays everything about as well as my friends series x. Overall a good value for 300.

    Compact and beautiful to display, runs well plays everything you want too, nothing but satisfied with the product. My only gripe would be storage but easily upgradable if you choose so.

    Insane performance for an insanely cheap next gen console. Been using it for 6 months and have had no problems. The fans have basically no sound and the ssd is really good. Buy this over the series x and even the Ps5 if you wanna save some money, unless of course you want the ps exculsives.

    I am amazed by the power that the Xbox Series S has. Boot times and load times are so much better than the Xbox One X. If you have any doubts, just go for it. You won't be disappointed. But I do recommend an external hard drive.

    It’s an Xbox series S, what more can I say? I love this console. I originally got the S because the X was out of stock and honestly I’m really satisfied with this model

    Bought this console because the others were out of stock and have been for quite some time. So glad we went with this because the Xbox game pass has so many options. We love it and highly recommend !

    Decent little system. Allows you to play modern and previous xbox games at a reasonable price. Purchased with a game pass subscription and the number of games available is impressive.

    I have the series X and wanted to get my Dad playing Microsoft Flight Simulator. He doesn't have a PC, so I got him the Series S. It has worked out perfectly! He's 78 and is able to navigate to play the game. I'm very happy!

    Bought this for my son to replace his Xbox One X. He says it performs much better on his games than his old unit. It's a no brainer for X/S series optimized games and will soon be a requirement to play new games coming out.

    Was really happy with my recent purchase. Having an Xbox that I can take on the go without having to bring CDs with me or anything as much easier much nicer and I can use it with a portable screen. The great for your casual user

    The quickness of loading and downloading games or movies, the slimness of the console as well surprised me. The picture quality and frame rate is smooth and really happy with how I do not have a slow frame rate and with modern warfare I can see the finer detail of everything in game.

    First Xbox I’ve owned since the 360 and holy cow is this quick. It is the perfect game pass machine. Just wish it had a little more storage.
